Decent Food, Disposable Dishes - Edit
Very nice service, funky location, easy parking in the back. Food is decent. I did not enjoy eating from paper plates using a plastic fork. Bring your own water, they don't have any. Seems more a takeout place.

Fresh, Tasty and 100% Vegan - Edit
Sushi is prepared right in front of you, and all ingredients used are fresh. This could be five stars, if only they used less rice, which makes the meal more carb heavy than necessary, and moreso since they use white rice; not brown.
Read morePros: Fresh ingredients, 100% Vegan
Cons: Need to use less rice, and make it brown not white

Good! - Edit
They have such a big variety of sushi, wow! It is yummy, fresh and healthy, also a very nice presentation. I was especially curious about the fish. While the look and texture were amazing, it unfortunately lacked in flavour. Still a good place and not too pricey!
Read morePros: healthy fresh vegan sushi, friendly staff, cool look
Cons: fish lacks taste, disposable cuttlery and plates:(

O lugar perfeito para um California roll na California - Edit
O Narita Vegan Sushi possui diversas opções japonesas veganas e os rolls possuem um bom tamanho: pedi dois rolls (foto) e sai satisfeito com meu jantar.
Read moreA localização é excelente; bem próximo à praia e a uma agradável caminhada do pier de Santa Monica. Achei o restaurante ideal para finalmente experimentar o tradicional California Roll na California. Seja para comer no restaurante, seja para levar o roll para viagem e comer no icônico pier ou na praia, você vai ter uma boa experiência.
Convém destacar que o Narita Vegan Sushi é vizinho a outro bom restaurante vegano de Santa Monica, o Thai Vegan. Comida asiática vegana de qualidade não falta na região.
Pros: Totalmente vegano, Comida saborosa, Ambiente agradável

Over-sauced supermarket quality sushi - Edit
I really wanted to like this, but it's over-sauced, mushy stuff. It's like something I picked up at the supermarket. No atmosphere, or at least not one where I want to spend time.
Read morePros: Cheap
Cons: Unpleasant

Surprising texture - Edit
Got the sushi combo. The texture was pretty similar to sushi, the different kinds of “fish” did actually taste different. Would come here again! Miso soup wasn’t good.

Vegan fish! - Edit
I love sushi because of the fresh ingredients and Narita was just that. I got a few rolls and they were all delicious. The vegan salmon tasted a little too fishy for me but I've never been a big fish gal.

What an amazing spot! - Edit
This place is wonderful. It’s a short walk from the beach right on Main in Santa Monica. You order at the counter and can eat outside or at a table/counter inside. It’s pretty chill. The food is incredible. I ordered the Hot Beach roll, the baked lobster roll, and got an order of cucumber salad and spicy edamame to try. It was all so so good. They also have so many options for special rolls it’s hard to choose. I never saw vegan salmon that looked like this before, it’s incredible the flavors are amazing. I highly recommend this place when you are in Santa Monica!

The best vegan sushi! - Edit
Hands down the best vegan sushi I’ve ever had. I stumbled upon them a little early but the man was willing to get my order in early. He was so kind and friendly plus the food was amazing! The roll came with a small ginger salad that was very refreshing and complimentary to the roll. I got the Alaska Roll

Very tasty - Edit
Sushi rolls were very tasty. Loved that they used vegan fish vs. just vegetables. Only reason I’m giving 4 stars over 5 is everything tasted very similar

Wide selection of vegan sushi rolls at a reasonable price! - Edit
Hubby and I ate here ordering the Volcano roll. As this restaurant is colocated with Thai Vegan, we ordered two things from that menu, as well. See that restaurant for review.
Read moreThe Volcano roll was a large portion, definitely enough to share between us. The roll tasted good, but one of the ingredients in the actual roll itself had a strange pasty consistency that was slightly grainy. I'm not sure if it was the spicy tuna or not. As can be seen from the pic, the roll was sliced and each slice was turned on its side and toppings were piled on each slice. It was impossible to see what was actually in the roll, but that's definitely where the grainy/pasty ingredient was found.
The roll was quite filing and the side salad was a nice addition. I would definitely go back to try other items on the menu. Final note, the only water available is bottled.

Pros: Friendly, helpful staff, Colocated with Thai Vegan, Reasonable prices
Cons: No tap water available
